IMDB

Somehow we're number 150 on IMDB. At least according to our distributor. Does anybody have IMDB pro? I love to know our ranking.

That's right, as of today if you type "batt" into the imdb search engine we're the first thing to come up. Even higher that Battle: LA and Battlestar Galactica.
Our reviews on imdb are about what you expect. Reviews on IMDB are about a half-step above the average YouTube comment. We in the genre movie world are fairly used to that.

Here's a review meme I've seen a lot of:

Give me a good laptop computer, an HD camera and a few students from the local primary school, and I can make a better movie than this. 

Really? The thing standing between you and making a movie is that you don't have a $600 video camera? Someone should take up a collection for you? ;-)

You are 180. Congrats, sir! That's very high!

I don't mind bad reviews, but that meme you mentioned ("I could make a better movie than this") pisses me off.

It's like me saying "The quarterback for that pro football team sucks. Give me a helmet and I can play better than him."

Well, I guess the exception would be if David Fincher or Steven Soderbergh or somebody was trolling IMDB writing reviews like that. That'd be kind of awesome, actually.

Yeah, you give me a stick and a ball and I could play major league baseball! ;-)

If Steven Soderbergh trolled IMDB it WOULD be awesome.
